What gets me up in the morning and keeps me up at night? Music. Private instructors, fellow jammies (music collaborators) and the Berklee College of Music in Boston, all made me who I am as a teacher. I love the prestige of a successful lesson, to see the revelation of "cool" in the student and myself. It seems music was made for me, but also for anyone else who wants to learn. Read More

I make sure to know where the student is at in their playing ability. From then, I try to make sure that the student has as much fun as possible, while still staying on topic of the materials I teach them. I do my best to make sure the student is comfortably in what I have to teach them, I do not want to frustrate the student or make them learn music they are not interested in. Read More

I'm a passionate, experienced and motivated instructor with a strong desire for sharing knowledge based on my personal experience as a professional musician. In 2010, I graduated from Berklee College of Music with a degree in Contemporary Writing and Production and was able to learn from some of the greats like David Fiuczynski and David Tronzo. After graduating, I moved to Brooklyn, NYC, where I worked professionally for over 7 years, touring with Grammy Award-nominated talent and collaborated in sessions with some of the top producers in the industry.

Attempting to learn an instrument is difficult, and doing so in the presence of an already experienced musician can be intimidating and even discouraging.

I am very flexible with my teaching methods and put together the best style matching the student's learning strengths. Furthermore, I update and change my methods if I feel the current method is becoming ineffective. I keep my lessons interactive with the student because the time is for the student to retrieve as much information as he/she can regarding their instrument and they can build a stronger week of preparation heading into the next lesson.  Currently my most used methods are teaching via classical, pop & jazz, and Suzuki methods.
